This study reported the usefulness of strain elastography in combination with BI-RADS scoring system. Although we have several clinical studies suggesting that specificity may be improved by adding elastography to the scanning of breast masses and that the confidence level for malignancy will be improved, the present study revealed that elastography will contribute to BI-RADS greater for breast lesions <1 cm in diameter and in <50 year group.
